Having looked briefly at the history and curriculum of Classical Education, this episode discusses a broad overview of some of the main pedagogical principles of Classical Education, including: Make Haste Slowly, Much Not Many, Repetition is the Mother of Memory and the concept of Schole.

There are plenty of great resources online that go into these principles in more detail. One of the best is from Dr Christopher Perrin, and can be found here.

Please consider becoming a founding donor for St John Henry Newman College, a new independent classical school in South Brisbane.
